The cool-climate origins of this wine are revealed immediately in the freshly crushed black and white pepper aromas. In the mouth, it's extraordinarily rich in blackberry jam and cassis, with the chocolaty, roasted meat notes that frequently characterize a good Syrah. Although it's pretty tannic, it's appealing now, and should develop for 4–5 more years.
